...as most non-Ford buyers are happy with the vehicles they have now
and therefore, zero reason to even consider a Ford car or SUV.

I believe that the market is very forgiving and if Ford begins to offer something,
anything that buyers are interested in then maybe sales will start to increase.
Fair call but personally i believe Ford have an excellent range of products right now, they look cutting edge, the problem is people dont look twice regardless, the question is, why?
Theres two ways to increase market share in any sector, you either offer something the people would want and increase your numbers or your competitors leave the segment.
You cant rely on the latter and the former is in showrooms right now, so whats keeping the punters away.

I'll give you a clue, it starts with R and ends with eputation.
